Independent Digital Twin Consultant — AECO

Model the asset before you build it.

I’m Rehan Khan, a digital twin lead based in Cologne. I help owners, architects, engineers, and contractors turn buildings and infrastructure into living digital systems — modeled before groundbreaking, integrated through construction, and monitored for decades of operation.

Who I Work With

One model, read by everyone who touches the building.

Owners & Developers

See true lifecycle cost and risk before capital is committed, and carry one model from pro forma to disposition.

General Contractors

Clash-checked sequencing and a single source of truth that keeps field teams and subs working from the same model.

Architecture & Engineering

BIM that stays synchronized across disciplines, with a readiness check before design intent becomes field reality.

Facility Operations

A live operational twin that flags failures before they happen, instead of a static model that goes stale at handover.

What I Do

Three disciplines, one continuous model.

Engagements typically combine services across advisory, delivery, and operations — scoped to where your project sits today.

How It Works

From readiness to a model that keeps working.

Assess

A DT Readiness Assessment maps your data, systems, and goals against what a digital twin actually needs to deliver value.

Model

I build the twin: BIM-integrated geometry, systems data, and the logic that keeps it synchronized with the real asset.

Integrate

The twin connects to IoT sensors, building systems, and operational feeds — live, not a one-time snapshot at handover.

Operate

Lifecycle simulation and predictive maintenance keep the twin, and the building, ahead of problems instead of reacting to them.
